#We are not the same group. We develop, use, and advocate FreeBSD.

#FreeBSD and Linux are not better than unix. They are unix. The term "unix"
#is used to refer to a family of operating systems who's lineage dates back
#to 1970. Unix(tm) is also a trade mark for people willing to pay to use
#it.
#
#No one group made Linux really. Search the net for "linus torvalds" to
#find out about who created the Linux kernel.
#
#I am going to assume by your lack of punctation, capitalization, nick name
#that you have been following the "HaCkeRs" world. You have no idea what is
#going on in the real unix world and some dumb kids tried to tell their
#clan created Linux. Not so!
#
#The unix world is really much larger than a bunch of dumb people with
#hokie cracker clan affilliations. Go to the websites and read and get some
#real knowledge. Don't listen to these childish rumors. The straight dope
#is out there. Go find it.
#
#This URL is a great place to start.

#
#And while your at it, install FreeBSD to learn about unix.
